An ugly complexion made Nellie fright,
Her face was all pimpiy and red,
Though her features were good, and her blue
eyes were bright,
"What plain girl is Nellie !" they said.
But now, Us by magic, plain Nellie has
grown
As fair rs an artists bright dream;
Her face is rs sweet NJ II flower new blown,
Her cheeks are like peaches and cream.
As Nellie walks out in the fair morning
light,
Her beauty attracts every eye,
And as for the people who called her n
fright,
"Why, Nellie is handsome )" they cry.
And the reason of the change is that Nellie
took DIR. Pi,rce's Golden Medical Discovery,
which regulated her liver, cleared her com
pIexion, made her blood pure, her breath
sweet, her face fair and rosy, and removed
the defects that had obscured her beauty.

Since our last the grim monster
death has been stalking wildly and
fearfully over our vicinity. Last

cough. Wednesday following Hen
ny Gates little babe was called home
to that better land. And on Friday
night, after brief illness of only
four or five days of typhoid fever,
Mr.. John G. Buchanan passed from
among the living. He was a young
man OF many admirable traits of
character and just in the bloom of
life. 1t would have seemed that
many bright and happy days await
ed him in the future, but alas. how
very soon that bright and happy
life yielded TO the ravages of dis
ease and to day is no more. He had
been going to school all the winter
and spring and his untimely death
will pain his teacher and school
mates who were warmly attached TO
hin and loved him. 1t is with sad
ness that the writer is forced to
chronicle his death. He leaves a
number of relatives and host of
friends to mourn bis loss. May the
flowers ever bloom in rich profu-
sion and sweeten each gentle zephyr
as it signs dirge over his grave;
and may the wild songsters with
the returning seasons sing their
lays to his slumbering dust,
